Today Charisma showed me how to make dragonfly bobby pins. Aren't they adorable?

Today I made: little crocheted hearts <3 I'm going to use them to make the color options for my bikini tops easier to choose from and I think it's a pretty cute idea. I haven't applied them to my shop yet but I will very soon. Each heart takes approximately five minutes to make, so it's a super easy craft for anyone who crochets. Aaaand, I just got a few brand new colors for spring so I will be making more of these.

colors already in my shop:

tea rose // coral

Today I made: a crochet headband. Here's another cute crochet project that's easy to make and doesn't take very long. They're very useful too! This ones super warm and a must bring to the snow this winter. I used a fluffy roving wool yarn that's incredibly soft and comfortable, perfect for a headband. 

In other news, I spent the rest of my day crocheting and working on a new Valentines listing. I took yesterdays 'make something' project, which was a crocheted heart necklace, and made it this morning in two more lovey dovey colors, then I took a bunch of pictures and posted it in my shop. I'm hoping to provide some cute, affordable, handmade gifts for lovers to buy for their ladies because every girl deserves something special on Valentines day. Now, I'll probably spend my evening filling orders, drinking green tea and watching America's Funniest Home Videos.

New in my shop:
heart necklaces // valentine scarves // bow hair clip

This weekend I made: a little bow keychain and another bracelet using an old moon bead. I know they're just little things, and were pretty simple to make but it is the weekend and it was a busy one. I gave the keychain to one of my friends, so heey I'm a pretty good friend to have, hang around me and you might get some free stuff. ;)

In other news, I had a great first week of the new year. How was yours?
